# Welcome

KatanOS is now published as a public repository.

The app reached a stable user base and performed well in Microsoft Store metrics, but direct feedback and community contribution remained limited. After shipping the planned scope, the project is considered functionally complete for its original goals.

Active long-term maintenance is no longer planned.

The repository is intentionally open so other developers can:

* fork and continue development
* modernize architecture and UX
* adapt modules for different personal or commercial workflows (within license terms)

If you build on top of this codebase, crediting the original author is appreciated.

KatanOS was the author's first full application and represents substantial effort and learning.
